38 Darling Street
Glebe

This dramatically transformed character landmark, ‘Darling House’ at 38 Darling Street, Glebe, generated more than 10,000 online views when it was listed by Alex Mastoris and Ben Southwell, who sold the four-bedroom terrace after just 10 days on the market thanks to clever styling and presentation.

Alex comments, “I’d kept in communication with the vendors over the years and they knew about my performance on similarly priced properties, which is why they turned to me when they decided to sell their beloved home.”

“We provided many recommendations regarding preparing the house for auction to ensure that it presented in its best possible form. We also had the property partially styled, incorporating some of the vendors’ furniture which was so well suited to the home.”

 

“The house presented beautifully and demand proved strong, especially given the uncertain climate and rising interest rate environment. Through engaging marketing, we were able to tap into a large pool of ready-to-go buyers looking for their dream home. By asking the right questions and continuously following up with purchasers, we were able to identify the standout buyers.”

“We kept in constant communication with our vendors throughout the campaign, providing timely updates and honest feedback regarding where these standout buyers saw value in comparison to the remaining interested parties. This allowed the vendors to make an informed decision to sell prior rather than taking the property through to auction. With 50 parties already having inspected the home and four contract issued, we felt we’d reached a point where a suitable offer was on the table. The home ultimately sold prior to auction on 3^rd March 2023 for an impressive result of $3.838m.”
